Navigation
For a successful neurosurgery, it is vital that all these technological systems can be used simultaneously in the operating room. Combination of intraoperative MRI, navigation, ultrasound and Gamma Knife methods in neurosurgery operating room; It helps to perform all necessary imaging methods quickly and completely before, during and after surgery.
In this system, using the images of the patient before the operation during the operation is called navigation. The anatomical or physiological image (where the speech center is) obtained from the patient’s MRI in the navigation system can be used during the surgery. In this method, the patient’s MRI is taken and transferred to the navigation device before the surgery. Thus, during the surgery, various risky areas in the patient’s brain can be seen with real-time navigation and planning can be made accordingly.
Tomotherapy
The tomotherapy device, which provides versatile and efficient “Personalized” treatments for the diversity of radiation oncology patients, is at your service in the Oncology Department of Medical Park Bahçelievler Hospital.
Allowing patient-specific planning for each patient, tomotherapy determines the location of the tumor before each treatment and creates the most accurate treatment area. By completely surrounding the tumor with the dose of radiotherapy, it prevents healthy tissues from receiving high-dose radiation and provides targeted treatment.
It allows the simultaneous irradiation of tumors in more than one region, which is not possible with conventional radiotherapy devices. For example, it allows a reduction in treatment time in cases with multiple liver or bone metastases.
Advantages of treatment with tomotherapy
targeted therapy
less side effects
Possibility of re-irradiation
Save time
Clinical Excellence
It allows the planning and execution of highly shaped dose distributions.
It perfects image guidance with “Computerized Tomography” technology integrated into the flawless daily system for precise patient positioning, margin reduction and adaptive planning.
